Chapter Twenty-Three: Taking the Opportunity (1st Update)
Chu Xian listened to Gu Qingyan's words and sighed deeply.
He was silent for a moment and said, "Anzhi is too extreme, he was not such a person before, in the past four years of traveling, I don't know what happened, so that he is now so radical that the An family is at fault." ”
Gu Qingyan said, "He has been to Southern Qi and Southern Liang, and there is no family like An Jia in both countries, standing on the border for 150 years. The livelihood of the people in the two countries is twice as strong as that of Dachu, so he believes that it is the An family that drags down the internal affairs. ”
Chu Xian shook his head, "There is nothing wrong with the An family, if there is a mistake, in the father's emperor, it is the father's inaction, and the weapons are outdated." ”
Gu Qingyan was noncommittal, and refilled the wine.
Chu Xian looked at him, "So, what do you mean...... Take this opportunity? Let the Gu family retreat? ”
"It's time for the Gu family to retreat."
Chu Xian was silent for a moment, "Actually, the Gu family is not wrong. ”
"If the Gu family does nothing, it is wrong." Gu Qingyan said, "It's not taking this opportunity, it's he who created this opportunity and used this opportunity to bet with me, bet on it, it's the county lord of Anxiao, it's also the Great Chu Jiangshan, or the legacy of the Wang family and the Gu family." ”
This is naturally Wang Anzhi.
Chu Xian was a little incomprehensible at this time, Gu Qingyan and Wang An knew it, and it seemed that he didn't understand, "What is he betting on the little county lord of An?" ”
"Don't want me." Gu Qingyan's tone suddenly revealed a thick tiredness, "And I bet on her unwillingness." ”
Wang Anzhi has always wanted to cut off the love between An Huajin and Gu Qingyan, and now he uses the emperor to make this move, just thinking that they will break off, and he wants Gu Qingyan to be the same as Gu Qingyan before.
He never thought that he would be so conflicted one day, he used to try his best to change Gu Qingyan's temperament, make him enthusiastic, and let him change the status quo of the world with him. When he really changed one day, he found that it was contrary to what he wanted, and he was the first to stand it.
And An Huajin, she never begged Gu Qingyan to change, but Gu Qingyan was influenced by her and changed because of her.
No matter what kind of Gu Qingyan makes An Huajin's heart move, whether it is the cold, cold, ruthless and cold-blooded Gu Qingyan who first saw her in Hongfan Lane on Eighth Street three years ago, whether it is Gu Qingyan who has lost her temper and made her awkward this year, she regards him as a person and likes him very much.
Her liking, not fake, frank, Gu Qingyan knows very well An Huajin's liking for him.
But because of this, he knows a little about her, her temperament, how she treats others, he is not very clear, but for feelings, it seems to be casual, but in fact, he can't rub sand in his eyes.
If it weren't for him, if he wasn't born in the Gu family, how could the Gu family know and not stop back then, she wouldn't complain much. But it was him.
He knows very well that because he is clear, he is powerless, and he can't do anything, but gamble and bet on her unwillingness.
is unwilling to return to the bridge from now on, unwilling to be honest with all her sincerity, and what she gets is his concealment, concealing the events of the year.
Chu Xian looked at Gu Qingyan for a while, seemed to understand, and suddenly said, "The plum blossoms in your courtyard are very beautiful, I don't know if Lord An Xiaojun can see it." ”
Gu Qingyan was silent.
But in her heart, she thought that she was about to be invisible, and she would not be willing to step into the Gu family again.
The two drank a jar of wine, and Chu Xian basically understood what Gu Qingyan meant, said goodbye and left, walked out of the door, and saw An Yining, Chu Xian beckoned to him.
An Yining walked in front of Chu Xian.
Chu Xian lowered his voice and said to him, "Your little aunt handed you over to Huai'an, she should like to trust him very much, right?" ”
An Yining nodded, "My little aunt likes my little uncle very much." ”
Chu Xian bowed his head, if he didn't like trust, he wouldn't hand An Yining over to Gu Qingyan, this was the only seedling in the An family. He said, "Have you written to your little aunt lately?" ”
An Yining shook her head, "My little uncle won't let me write." ”
"Then write a letter! Just say that I want to meet your little aunt, if Nanyang is nothing serious, let her come to Beijing. Chu Xian said.
An Yining blinked, "My little uncle won't let me write." ”
"You write now, I'll help you take it out and send someone to Nanyang." Chu Xian said, "Don't let him know." ”
An Yining glanced cautiously at the back room and whispered, "Can it be done?" I can't hide it from my uncle. ”
"It works." Chu Xian smiled, "He just trapped himself himself, so he didn't even dare to let you write a letter." You just write, and he knows it, and I'll carry it. ”
An Yining nodded, "Okay, then you come with me, and I'll write it now." ”
Chu Xian bowed his head and followed An Yining to his house.
An Yining's writing to An Huajin had already been practiced very skillfully and quickly, and in a short time, a very thick letter was written and handed over to Chu Xian. He babbled a lot, and at the end of the letter, he mentioned that the eldest prince invited his little aunt to come to Beijing.
Chu Xian accepted the letter and touched his head, "I'll see you another day." ”
"Okay, Your Highness, go slowly." An Yining likes this highness very much, and the little adult sends Chu Xian out of the mansion generally.
Two figures, one large and one small, pulled out a long shadow under the lamp.
Chu Xian is different from others, An Yining seems to see his father's shadow from him, this highness seems to be the one who can't forget his father the deepest, the little aunt never shows the emotions of missing, even if she misses, she even brings her grandfather and second uncle, Uncle Shen too, Uncle Cui too, and cousin too, but only His Royal Highness, he is not, he is mentioning his father, and his emotions can't be suppressed, only for his father alone. Of course, it is also because he has only seen his father alone, and his companion is his father, not someone else.
He thought that back then, His Royal Highness and his father should have gotten along like confidants. Probably like Boya and Child? He didn't understand it very well, in short, it was different, and it was not the same as when his cousin mentioned his father.
Gu Qingyan naturally knew that Chu Xian asked An Yining to write a letter to An Huajin, and he didn't stop Chu Xian until he left.
After Chu Xian came out of the Gu family, he went to the Prince's Mansion.
Chu Yan was waiting for him.
After Chu Xian saw Chu Yan, he put An Yining's letter in front of him, and said with a smile on his eyebrows, "Seventh brother, I have seen Ning'er, he is really similar to Qichen." ”
Chu Yan was not surprised, except for the time when Gu Qingyan left Beijing and started with Wang Anzhi, he took An Yining with him everywhere he went, especially in his courtyard, An Yining spent most of his time with him every day, and some people in Beijing had doubts about An Yining's identity a while ago, but because Gu Qingyan was injured and recuperated, and now he is closed, and he rarely appears in front of people after returning to Beijing, so that An Yining follows him and rarely Chu Xian is in front of people. There are still fewer people to see. I don't know if it's because of Gu Qingyan or what, even if An Yining and An Qichen are very similar, no one has come to His Majesty to say anything, or investigate one or two thoroughly, and Your Majesty has never seen An Yining.
"But Ning'er and Qichen are not very different, their temperament is much calmer than that of Qichen back then, like a little adult, but they are very similar to Huai'an, a bit like the Gu family." Chu Xian said again.
Chu Yan said calmly, "Children are easily affected by the environment and the people around them, and when he came out of Xiuling Mountain, he followed Gu Qingyan, and his temperament gradually became similar to him, which is not surprising." ”
He paused, and then said, "But even if he is taught by Gu Qingyan, he is still the blood of the An family in his bones, and there are always things that cannot be changed." ”
Chu Xian sighed lightly, "Seventh brother, you have a great opinion of the Gu family and Huai'an. ”
Chu Yan shut up.
Chu Xian also vaguely felt that Gu Qingyan was probably right, and in terms of the Gu family and Gu Qingyan's opinion, Chu Yan was selfish and biased when it came to An Huajin. He no longer said An Yining, but told him what he meant after he went to Gu's house to see Gu Qingyan.
Gu Qingyan expected that Chu Yan asked Chu Xian to see him, and Chu Yan was no exception, he was Gu Qingyan, except for dealing with Wang An's crookedness, the rest of the time, he had no last resort.
"Seventh brother, what do you think should be done to change the internal affairs of Da Chu?" Chu Xian saw that after Chu Yan listened to Gu Qingyan's words, he was silent, and he asked out loud.
"What does the eldest brother think?" Chu Yan asked rhetorically.
Chu Xian thought for a moment and said thoughtfully, "After I came out of the Gu family, I thought all the way, and I felt that the seventh brother should take the opportunity to arrange his own people!" The family has always controlled the situation, and now Huai'an has taken this opportunity to make it happen, let the Gu family retreat, and the two of them are fighting, it is the time for you to show it. ”
Chu Yan nodded, "I don't have enough manpower, most of the eldest brother's people are idle, come up!" ”
Chu Xian hesitated, "This is not appropriate. ”
Chu Yan raised his eyebrows, "What's wrong?" Isn't the eldest brother sincere in helping the younger brother? ”
Chu Xian sighed, "I naturally sincerely help the seventh brother, but my people have too much power, and I am afraid that as time goes by, it will disturb the brotherhood between you and me." ”
"No, big brother will always be there, right? As long as you've been there, can your people still turn the sky upside down? I will always believe in Big Brother. Chu Yan rubbed his eyebrows tiredly, "Now only the eldest brother can help me." ”
"Okay." Chu Xian was touched by Chu Yan's tired look and the last sentence, and agreed.
